There's always someone out to ask for help and always are polite!! such a good selection of products... and the coolest things are so cheap, it's awesome!!

The Barbie doll in the neighboring glass case dumped him.

I'm no geek by any means, but The Inner Geek definitely does its name justice. At the touch of just about anything, my mind was instantly ballooned with information about that object. I also saw a half-man half-fox in there too, so I decided to take his tail. However, I can't justify many of the prices in there. For example, an old, rusty model minivan costs nearly $50, and a mouse-sized St. Louis Blue's jersey costs more than what I paid for my ore-owned Penguins' jersey. The Bill Elliott lunch boxes were dope.

This is the main logo for the three inner geek locations.

Great little coffee place for those looking to do a bit of work or just hang out for a while. A…read morefriend and I came here with the intent to check out the fall festivities, though the rain had put a stop to them sadly. Still, this place made the trip worthwhile and I enjoyed a nice hot chocolate (and complimentary Halloween-themed shortbread cookie!). The barista was pleasant and answered our questions about the environs. We only checked out the bookstore section briefly though it did have an excellent selection, and even had a typewriter set up for aspiring typists to play around with. As a typewriter owner, it's always cool to see opportunities for the next generation to get a chance to work with these machines (if only so they can appreciate how much easier word processors are when it comes to editing!) I would gladly come back here again, and hopefully take more time to check out the books as well. Overall: 4.5/5 stars ---- Pros: - Great drinks. - Pleasant staff. - Quiet place to do work or look for a new book to dive into. - Easy street parking nearby. Cons: - Most tables are two tops, so if your group is three or more, you may have to improvise your seating arrangement.

Most magical coffee/bookshop in all of Appalachia. (Ive been to a LOT of them) The antique district…read moreis a thrifter's paradise and this place is the cherry on top! Great coffee and vibes! Could totally see them filming a hallmark movie here for the ambiance. Lots of local artists work for sale, too.

Personally, I don't like how the sections were all rearranged after years of being the same, but…read moreBAM has maintained its organization and variety of books and other items. Plus a decently sized clearance section. The iconic manga + young adult section isn't as distinctive and exciting as it used to be (but also I'm getting old LOL), but it's still a fun place to browse. 1 star off because there's no longer a public restroom and the prices for non-book items are often ridiculous. Service is usually great and quick. Skip is a staple and an asset to the store.

I went in recently and purchased a magazine. Upon paying, the cashier asked me to check 3 out of…read morethe 5 magazines on the debit card screen. She said whatever 3 I checked, they would send me a free issue. I assumed they did that to try to get you to subscribe obviously. What she failed to tell me, that by doing this, she actually subscribed me to all of the magazines checked. She never mentioned anything about that or that I would be billed for anything. A month later, my debit card got billed for all 3 subscriptions. It also overdrew my account because I wasn't expecting any unauthorized charges to come out of my account. I was livid. I called and talked to the manager and she could care less. Her "professional answer" was we will look into different ways of how we do marketing. I could care less what you look into, I want to know how my debit card signature counted as a subscription contract without any knowledge. And the fact they weren't eager to offer any solution speaks volumes of this place. I had to call a third party company to cancel. I never got refunded for the subscription or the 3 over draft fees that happened when they ran my account short.
